1 SEIZE THE MOMENT To Raise Awareness And Funds For Connected North

2 About We are proud to introduce the inaugural Tech 4 Good Hockey Tournament in support of Connected North, a breakthrough program leveraging interactive, high definition video to deliver education and youth mental health and wellness services to students in Indigenous communities in Canada s remote north. On April 7th, players will hit the ice at the Sixteen Mile Sports Complex in Oakville, Ontario to help raise critically needed funds to enable us to serve more communities and add more schools and students to the network. Help us ensure that children in our northern-most communities have access to the support, experiences and opportunities that they deserve. WHY CONNECTED NORTH In 2013 James Anaya, UN Special Rapporteur on the Rights of Indigenous People, characterized the quality of life for Canada s Indigenous peoples as a crisis. Today, it is estimated that one in four children in First Nations communities live in poverty. The reality in too many remote Indigenous communities is a youth suicide rate 11 times the national average, and high-school drop out rates of more than 60 per cent. The social challenges faced are stark and significant, compounded by the difficulties of getting critically needed mental health and education services into these remote locations. And yet the children in these communities deserve access to the same resources as the children in the south. We must do better to level the playing field and ensure these communities get the support they need. Now there is a program that can help make this a reality by using technology to overcome the challenges of time and distance. Connected North is a leading edge program delivering immersive and interactive education services through Cisco s high definition two-way TelePresence video technology. The program fosters student engagement and enhanced educational outcomes in remote Indigenous communities by connecting students and teachers in real time. Connected North is made possible through a strong ecosystem of over fifty partners with program delivery managed by charity partner TakingITGlobal. We are proud of our partnerships with some of Canada s largest corporations, foundations, NGOs, Federal, Provincial and Territorial governments united by common purpose to improve student success and outcomes. The goal is to provide students and teachers with access to real-time sessions and experiences with content that is engaging, and customized to meet the needs of each school, with a hope of increasing feelings of empowerment for each student in school and in life. conectednorth.org

3 AN INDUSTRY COMING TOGETHER FOR CHANGE At the heart of Connected North lies a technology solution, a network of connectivity galvanizing tech industry partners for powerful transformation where it is urgently needed in this country. Connected North works with local bandwidth service providers, IT integrators, governments, funders, community and school leadership, and teachers to implement reliable, secure collaboration technology. The program delivers a sustainable solution, providing a new model for learning to engage students every day if needed. The tech industry is building out this network, uniquely poised to deliver this new model for learning, working closely with our schools and communities. We are making a difference. The inaugural Tech for Good Hockey Tournament will bring together the tech community, our customers and partners to raise funds to support the program in two critical areas: First: Your donations will help us reach more schools and students. Today, Connected North operates in 32 schools serving over 5,000 students. But we have many communities that have reached out to us to join the network. Help us make it happen. Second: We need to bring more experts, experiences, and content providers onto the network. Our hope is to build a dynamic, digital, uniquely Canadian network connecting schools on a wide range of topics: Encouraging cross-cultural sharing; Linking students between schools; Facilitating virtual teacher professional development workshops and training; Building hope, and pride through mentoring; Showcasing cultural celebration; Exploring future pathways and careers. The Connected North team works closely with each school to customize the content and to address their unique By coming together, the tech industry, our partners and customers can be a powerful force for change!
